As a condition to the independence of Cyprus from Britain in 1960; Greece, Turkey and Cyprus agreed to a power-sharing government in which the Minority Turks had less power in total, but slightly more power per person. Cyprus would be independent from Britain, Greece and Turkey. By 1974 the Turks and Greeks in Cyprus were no longer working together that well, and Greece was controlled by a military junta. Greece threatened to take complete control of Cyprus, and make it part of Greece, ignoring the views of the Turkish minority although at this point the Greek majority liked the idea.As a guarantor powers Turkey invaded Cyprus to bring peace, but because the Greeks still wanted to join Greece the Turkish in Cyprus created the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus.
